“Every field you lose, you lose the birds from that field,” he said. Rosenberg’s study didn’t go into what’s making wild birds dwindle away, but he pointed to past studies that blame habitat loss, cats and windows. The research only covered wild birds, not domesticated ones such as chickens. Now, he said, people get excited when they see 10 grosbeaks. When he was younger there would be “invasions” of evening grosbeaks that his father would take him to see in Upstate New York with 200 to 300 birds around one feeder. Rosenberg, a birdwatcher since he was 3, has seen this firsthand over more than 60 years. For example, bluebirds are increasing, mostly because people have worked hard to get their numbers up. Grassland birds in general are less than half what they used to be, he said. Bobwhite quail numbers are down 80%, Rosenberg said. The population of eastern meadowlarks has shriveled by more than three-quarters with the western meadowlark nearly as hard hit. The common house sparrow was at the top of the list for losses, as were many other sparrows. Some of the most common and recognizable birds are taking the biggest hits, even though they are not near disappearing yet, Rosenberg said.
